Such a great life!

Feeling so fortunate today to have such an interesting, full life! Just finished my own studio classes on Sunday -we had a lovely three days of classes and students made some wonderful felt. Hats, wallhangings, a vest, wraps and scarves .. Preparing this week for Pam de Groot’s class at the Felt Studio next Wednesday-Sunday.Pam is teaching here on her way back from teaching in the USA. There are still spaces in both classes so if you have some time we would love you to join us! There is a two-day class and a three-day class -see the workshop section on the sidebar for details. I am also taking bookings for a 4-day class with Lisa Klakulak from the USA from October 4th-7th 2012.I have always admired Lisa’s work and am so excited to have her visit the studio and teach. Here are some images of Lisa’s work. For details of her class go to the workshop section on the sidebar. I have nine expressions of interest and 12 spaces. 

  I have only one more block of my own lessons for the year, October 11th-14th. This is your last chance this year to do a Felt Studio class! How the time flies. Next year’s classes will start in late Feb/early March when the hot weather has settled. A lovely new book has arrived which will inspire you! Available from my studio…$35 plus postage. Australian customers only. Email me for postage cost. I am not putting it on my online shop so I can keep the postage rate down for you!

A celebration of creativity, color and materials

A colorful and inspiring book by and for felters.  The book shows 93 felters and they tell what their specialty is and what makes felt for them so special. With over 500 color illustrations and an attractive design,  ranging from practical everyday objects to large three-dimensional art objects. In soft earth tones or in an explosion of color. The book shows how the ancient technique of felting continues to develop.
